Power Play — Penny Jordan

Ten years ago, Rachel Lee was a poor gypsy girl, who with great effort managed to go to the University. There she met an attractive and privileged young boy, but he and three friends raped her, destroying her illusions.

Now, she is Pepper Minesse, and she is out to destroy the lives of the four men. Finally, she has the edge - enough evidence to blackmail them and ruin their very successful, very public lives. But they have plans of their own, plans to protect their secrets at all costs, and Pepper must suddenly rely on an unexpected ally to save herself. He was Miles French, one of the men involved in the attack.
